In general war is not mass murder, or I should say was not, WWII brought
that into question by the way it was conducted. But historically war was
among the warriors, the civilians who suffered usually did so through
deprivation not death. So there was a difference. Now what the wars were
fought over is a different issue all together.

What the Serbs did to the Croats or the Bosnians was not war it was ethnic
clensing and genocide, much like what the US government did to the Cherokee,
Creek, Chickasaw, Chactaw, and Seminoles in the Trail of Tears a century and
a half earlier.

How do we determine wath is moral and immoral? Look to your heart. Most
things fall into the area between obviously moral and obviously immoral
because they can be good in one situation and bad in another. This makes
blanket statements only of interest to those who just want to argue about it
and create unnecessary discord. Example it is not nice to hit someone who is
not harming you, but if he's beating a helpless being, cold-cock him and
don't have a second thought.

Most of us knew right from wrong before the end of 1st grade (don't hurt
others, etc.). As we age the issues become more complex but the guidelines
are all still valid.

Namaste,

Joe.
